[Chameleon] Remote Template/context document question, and potential code con tributions

[West, Chris]

Hi everyone,
 
I am wondering if it is possible to get the CWC2 service instance to work
with template and context files that are not on the same web server as the
Chameleon/CWC2 instance. 
An example URL that I'm trying is:
http://localhost/chameleon/cwc2/cwc2.php?request=GetApplication&SERVICE=VCG&
version=0.1.0&LANGUAGES=en-CA,fr-CA&TEMPLATES=http://nfis.org/chameleon/nfis
_portal_Demo.html,http://localhost/&contexts=http://nfis.org/chameleon/local
host_provinces.cml.

I recall that in an earlier version of CWC2 this was possible, but I
couldn't find any examples of this in the ServiceInstance documentation for
Version 1.99
(http://www.maptools.org/chameleon/index.phtml?page=ServiceInstance.html). 
The main problem that I am running into is that a blank map is returned
anytime one of the Navigation widgets is used.


On a different subject. We have made some slight bug fixes for a few of the
widgets, as well as creating some new widgets. Is there a procedure for
Chameleon users to submit potential code/documentation contributions to the
Chameleon project?

Thanks
